[blindLaw] Commuting from Outside the City

[Kelby Carlson]

All,

This is not a specifically law-related question, but a question about commuting to a legal job. At the moment we are living in a small town where I can walk to work, but soon I will be working in a larger city. We were hoping to find housing in an area where I could either walk or take a short bus ride, but the areas where that is possible are not safe. Unfortunately farther out it is very difficult to find anything that connects to a bus line and provides for a reasonable commute time. Are there other alternatives people have found in situations like these? Buses are by and large the only option—there is paratransit, but its timing is likely not reliable enough that commuting exclusively with it would work.
